Finca Algaba is an eco-friendly place, where the protection of the natural environment is top-priority.

Several well-known photographers have used this Finca to get a series of photographs of different birds in the past and we thought that a good number of different species could be observed and photographed if a photography hide was available. And so it has proven to be the case with a some highly successful seasons so far.

The "Hide - Algaba Ronda" is located in Finca Algaba about 4 km from Ronda (Málaga). More information about the farm can be seen on their website. There is also the possibility of accommodation on site, again please view their website for further details.

The Hide is on an estate that is contained in 50 hectares of Mediterranean forest, where you can admire splendid examples of various oak species, including cork oaks along with a variety of associated plant species.The Finca Algaba Estate itself is a place of exceptional quality to display the different ecosystems and habitats of some of the most representative species of birds in the south of the peninsula.

The Hide itself is a spy glass house measuring a generous 5.2 x 2.1m that can be used comfortably for 4 photographers. Inside the hide there is a toilet and washbasin, also we provide heating in the winter.The scenario combines a very close (approx. 5m) water trough/feeder for birds in the area and further away (approx. 20m) raptor perches and feeders.

When you are interested you can very simply reserve the hide to do your own observation or photography.
